My son has suddenly taken a fancy to playing GT5, and I am little nervous with him using my profile. Next thing I know I will have no money!

I have looked but can't see how, but surely there is a way to set up a second profile for him to play in GT mode.

Any help would be appreciated before he sells all my cars!! smile

Set him up with a second user account on the ps3. You cannot have two separate GT5 saves on one ps3 account.

How do I set up an account when he is seven years old, it won't let me? If I put in my e-mail and password it says I am already assigned to this computer??

Use a different email address?... He doesn't need a PSN though - just set up an account on the PS3 itself.

New profile on PS3 itself, not PSN.

(Any dlc you've accquired gets carried over with the family pack, and if you bought one of the special editions, all cars and stuff get carried over anyway - or at least it did on mine.

Sorry I did actually mean a new profile. If you do this he will have his own save game but providing you bought the family pack has previously said he will still have access to all the DLC cars.

Is really the only way to have two different GT5 save games on the same PS3. What you have to remember is to make sure he's logged in before he plays the game ;-)

Let him buy lots of cars like he did on my PS.
